this is a funny thread.

I only use Slanglish on the forum because in real life peeps would reckon me's mental. I'm barely coherent as it is.

ps: what's a chav and where can i get one?

It seems to be a waste of energy for me to care enough about what slang SHOULD or SHOULDN'T be used in area x around the world.

The same way I feel when I hear kids from London trying to act like they're jamaica.....

like devoting the rest of my life to developing a time machine and flying back to when their mothers were pregnant and punching them right in their belly.

There's a huge jamaican cultural influence in parts of london which has rubbed off on generations of youths over the years, hardly suprising really There's a huge difference in 'acting' a certain way and being a certain way.

i can't help but use british slang, especially after all the damn mixes with mc's in the background its almost become an inate function for me to use the vocabulary that i constantly hear on a daily basis. I would almost feel abnormal if i didn't throw in some slang from the good ol U.K

Why is everyone spelling "bollocks" with a "u."

I am an American and I mean I love British slang (don't use it) but i think you should have a British accent for it to sound good. I use good old Californian slang: dude, chill, man, dope, dank, shit like that xD
